Had a great time recording this with you! Absolutely loved how it turned out!
You’re an inspiration to everyone PokeZard! Big thank you to your entire family for being a part of it.
Well done pokezard
Happy pokemon day to real breaking Nate and Marie ❤️💙❤️💙❤️
Hi pokezard my favorite pokemon is pikachu
Congratulations
I am so happy that this film is finally out for everyone to enjoy! It has been a long process, but I loved editing this documentary and working on the entire process with you Nate. Isaiah's story (PokeZard) is very inspirational and relatable for so many of us who enjoy and love Pokémon. Happy Pokémon Day everyone, enjoy the film! 🥳🙌🏼
Jon you did an amazing job! I love our friendship more than words can describe.
@@RealBreakingNate You’re awesome!
Thanks for all the time you put into making this the masterpiece it is!!!
Isaiah is so awesome, but I love how excited his dad is for his son's activity, even without fully understanding it all.
Dad is amazing, when he dropped Venasaur was his favorite, I knew he was a real one.
This was amazing to watch from start to finish. Isaiah is an absolutely kind and gentle soul with lots of Pokémon knowledge. You can see his passion shine through when he talks about Pokémon. Even with the losses, he stays positive and learns from them. He thinks steps ahead of his opponent while competing which indicates how much he's learning. Thank you Nate, Marie & everyone on the team who helped document this for all of us!!
He is truly an inspiration for everyone!
Way to go Pokezard! I have found myself losing some of my joy in the pokemon hobby, then a bunch of people showed up to the leauge last week when there have just been on or two people the last few months. It really makes a difference to have a community. Kids like him and people like Nate and Mark at the Danger Room are what makes this community so amazing. Thank you for this video.
So nice and important to have supportive parents like Isaiah. Even though they don’t understand Pokemon or the tcg, they try to encourage him to pursue his dream which is so awesome to see. I wish him all the best for the future and i hope he will be champion one day!
He for sure will be a future Pokémon world champion
I honestly teared up. I appreciate this video, the time, the passion, and the people. Isaiah is such a bright person and I hope for nothing but greatness for him. Thank you so much for this. We may have losses here and there, but we can always dust ourselves off, learn, grow, and adapt. Humility, beauty and appreciation go such a long way. Thank you all! Keep up the great work!! 😊🙏🏼🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Really loved your comment! There is so much to be learned throughout life.
I’m not crying 🥹 you’re crying! This was the sweetest video, thanks so much for sharing! 💗 So happy y’all did this and that Isaiah will have this to look back on. So happy I found your channel at the end of last year. Such a fun and positive channel and group of friends. Y’all are so blessed! 💗
Oh I am for sure crying!
It’s good to see a Pokémon CZcamsr that is actually into the community and TCG aspects of Pokémon. Great video!
What a great video, really well done! I turned this on to listen to as background noise and found myself GLUED to it instead. Love everyone featured in the video, everyone seems so wholesome. This is what Pokemon is about and I love to see this kind of content to really promote the brand! Congratz to PokeZard on such a great first performance and I am sure he will have many more to build off this one! Thanks again for sharing, if I could like this video 100 times, I would.
Thank you! Means a lot that you were glued to watching the video
Thanks so much!
I have to say I believe you are one of the most genuine CZcamsrs in the Pokémon community and I think it’s awesome that you did a video that wasn’t even about yourself but about the future generation of the community and I respect that just like I know the rest of your following does. Awesome video and congrats to you and your win position pokezard great job
Pokémon brings people together. The future generation is so important to the Pokémon community
Dude this was one of the best videos you've done. Nothing but wholesome ❤️
Wow, thank you! You know I appreciate that Roc
@@RealBreakingNate ❤🔥
I must say this has made me cry tears of joy to see how far pokezard has come an with all the experiences with him in the videos , it shows that pokemon will forever be loved❤️
This is exactly what the community is all about. Love that the whole team was there to support ZARD. Keep digging guys. You are all the reason we live,play, and feel positive.
This is my favorite video you’ve posted it’s so heart felt really brings a tear to your eye what you do for your fans and community is incredible
Thank you very much! Appreciate that Garrett
I loved every second of this video! What you did Nate with this documentary for PokeZard was truly beautiful! The friendship and the journey is what it’s all about and you truly are an inspiration to everyone cause you can tell how much you care about everyone and the things you do for people is really beautiful man! Keep being awesome and never give up on your dreams PokeZard!
I loved everything about this video! The editing is phenomenal, but the story-telling really hit me hard. Such an amazing job to everyone involved. Can't wait to see you all in Ft. Wayne next month!
Heyyyy Danny!!! Thank you tons dude. Appreciate you taking time out to watch it.
So ready for Ft Wayne regionals. We will see ya there!
I'm so ready for this journey! Hope to see Isaiah go all the way to Yokohama!!
He is for sure a future world champion!
@@RealBreakingNate No doubt!
Great video. Isiah is a true inspiration for kids of all ages, to follow their dreams. Todd is a great inspiration for dads to allow their kids to have dreams and support them. And the entire gang at the Danger Room for their continued support and friendship.
You have no idea how awesome Isiah’s dad is I tell Isaiah all the time how lucky he is to have such a great dad.
What an outstanding video! It’s fantastic to see how passionate Isaiah is about the game and how supportive both his family and you are of him. You’re the man Pokezard!!
Just to sit back and think about how big of an impact Pokémon has on people is amazing. Every person in this video has grown with it, socially and personally. When someone asks what Pokémon means to people, this should be the first thing they watch!
My new favorite video of yours! Honestly made me tear up. I love everything you do and stand for. The world needs more people like you Nate. How awesome for Isaiah to have you as a role model!
Nate, this was such a good watch! What you and Isaiah did here is nothing short of incredible!! Can't wait to see how far he can take his talents the rest of this season, it's so cool to see you travel along on the journey with him + love the road trip vibe cause it captures the Tournament feel perfectly - absolute legend!!
Thank you so much!
@@Pokezard123 You've got the skill, determination and drive to take you far mate, it's a long journey but that will just make it more rewarding when you get there. Hopefully we can have a few games together in Japan this year!!
Such an inspiring story. I’m 20 now, collecting and playing on and off for half my life, and I’ve NEVER had the courage to go to an event. The biggest thing I’ve gone to has been a few prereleases, but never a tournament. I’ve always wanted to go to Worlds, and ESPECIALLY with it being in Japan this year, though that’s most likely not happening for me.
Seeing this story is great. With my favorite Pokémon, Gardevoir, looking to be a great card competitively, maybe Scarlet & Violet will be my chance to not only get into competitive, but do it with my favorite Pokémon.
This is why Nate is the only poketuber I still watch. Such a good guy with wholesome content.
This is golden without a doubt, Pokezard is such an inspiration to all sorts of people including myself. So full of courage and determination, that's admirable for sure. Thank you to Pokezard, his entire family, all the people surrounding him and of course to Nate for such an epic video. Much love.
A really exciting video, it was really interesting to watch from the beginning to the end. You are both champions for being able to do what you did. And it was interesting to hear his story and see you helping him.
OH MY GOSH!! Real Breaking Nate, Pokezard & the whole team involved this was absolutely spectacular and ever so inspiring!
The throwback photos of the Danger Room bought back so many good memories of how cool my childhood was growing up with Pokemon! This has never felt so good!!
Thank you so much for this video, I can't wait for what's next on your channel!!
We are rooting for you, Pokezard!!
Woooooo!!!
Thanks!
Awesome vid Nate. Thanks for sharing and making this. Heading to my first regionals next month here in Charlotte. Super great to see this before I went.
Best of luck at your first Pokemon regionals!!!
This was awesome, well done. It reminded me of when I did this as a teen from 1996 to 2000 with the Star Wars CCG by Decipher
I totally remember that card game!
I never played Star Wars, but I did play Star Trek and Spellfire. I so miss Spellfire.
This was sooooo inspiring to watch. I love how you show the real journeys and the most amazing people in this community. Isaiah, you're wonderful and I'm sure you'll reach your big dream one day. I can't wait to see how your journey goes.
Thanks for bringing Isaiah’s story to us!! You’re an inspiration to us all Isaiah! This was a fantastic way to celebrate Pokémon day!!! 🙏🔥❤️🔥
I’m glad to see his story have your light shine on it. I’ve only ever gone a few times but man it’s so cool to see these people that I’ve had a few really positive interactions with. Good work Nate! 🤘
Glad you enjoyed it!
Ahh this is such a magic video!! Isaiah is so lucky to have such supportive friends and family, it’s really heartwarming to see everyone rally around and also to learn a bit more about someone we see on your channel so much. I’m sure he’s a world champ in the making!!
It’s so cool to see a bigger channel showcase the competitive TCG. You’re an inspiration to the community Nate!
Thank you bunches Alolantails! We worked on this video for 6 months. Definitely a passion project video. I do have more documentary/in depth videos already in the works that include more competitive play
@@RealBreakingNate that’s incredible! I’m so here for it! Sending you some positive vibes!
Man that was such a great video.....his passion and love is unmatched....with time he could be the best✌️💪
So awesome to see the story behind PokeZard. Even more to see so many from the Danger Room go and support him in his first regional. What a great local community y’all have. Thank you Nate for this!
Congrats on your first regional @Pokezard! As somebody who attended many Magic: The Gathering tournaments I remember that first tournament being very overwhelming. But after you get that first one out of the way, you just keep thinking about when you can do it again. I'm glad that Pokemon has a bright future in both collecting and play with the next gerenation.
such a great video idea! thank you for making this, Nate! you have the biggest heart
Thank you so much for sharing! I loved joining Isaiah on his journey! I can't wait to see Isaiah become the next Pokemon world champion!
This is so wholesome I love it! Looking forward to similar content in the future ❤
Great documentary its really amazing and heartwarming love everything about it and. It's really inspiring story it's really awesome and definitely always remember to be the very best like no one ever was
Always be the best like no one ever was!
Nate, this is why I love your videos. So true and real. Yes, this is a job for you as a creator, but you have so much love, and you're genuine about the hobby. Your videos aren't to profit. Your videos aren't for likes. Your videos are for the community, and I'm happy to have found you. As a 35 year old that remembers the ol' days of buying base packs with whatever I had to not being able to anymore as I have a daughter with expensive education costs and a mortgage, I live vicariously through your videos. Thank you. You and the community are awesome. You mean a lot to us, Nate. You too, Marie!
Yo Isaiah great job it’s good knowing you’ve got so far after I’ve known you for a while. Congrats 🎉
Means a lot!
Thanks for always bringing the wholesome positivity, Nate! Good luck to both you and Isaiah on your journeys!
This video was felt straight to my heart lol just such a heart warming video through and through. Awesome to see such supportive friends and family. Awesome awesome awesome 🎉❤

This is so awesome! I've started bringing my 6 (almost 7 year old) to local leagues and hope to be able to go to some tournaments in the future!
Glad I can be here for this man you’re doing a very inspirational and awesome job hope to get to chance to meet such a humble guy like yourself ✌🏽❤️✋🏽
Amazing video 🏆 🥉 great to know more of the friends, there goals, and putting pokemon cards to the next level. Video brought me back the motivation I had years back growing up being a big fan of pokemon. So exciting to see what you go thru in a regional tournament. Most importantly best wishes to pokezard on your matches, can't wait to see you be a champion, have alot of fun
Nate you are such an amazing and inspiring man!!! Your love for not only Pokémon but for people in general bring joy to my heart!!! To watch your journey over the years and to see how much yo it channel and yourself have grown is amazing and I am so proud to be a part of it!!!!! Watching you with pokezard and sharing your passion for Pokémon with him is truly awesome to watch!!! It brings tears of joy to my eyes, and I am so happy for that little boy to beable to chase his dreams and make it to a regional!! I can’t wait to watch you with your own kids one day, hopefully!! Lol you will be an Amazing dad!!! This video makes me reminisce of the times on the bud with my Pokémon cards, trading and playing with my friends!! It’s awesome to see that the passion for Pokémon has never really died!!!
It was such an amazing trip and good time. You did an excellent job capturing the feelings, excitement, anxiousness, and all the successes and failures. Great video and I can’t wait for more content of this type on your channel! ❤❤❤
Thank you my friend!!!
A father's support is an incredible thing. My dad bought me a few packs most weekends in 2000-2001, saw the first 2 pokemon movies with me, and supported my hobbies. 20 years later, we are collecting Mew cards together while states away from each other, and it's been a way to keep connecting. All of this support won't be forgotten.
This documentary is absolute gold. The setup, the plan, the idea, the result. This is awesome. Let's try and get this video really out there as a community!
That is by far my favorite video you’ve ever done!
Hope Isaiah keeps at it and trains on! Very brave kid to go to a big event like that and kick butt!
You did an awesome job with this documentary Nate!! You should be very proud of yourself!!!
I seriously do appreciate you saying that, thank you!
What an awesome and such well spoken kid! He’s so lucky to have you as a mentor and have such a supportive family of his dreams! What a great video Nate!
This is amazing! Good luck Isaiah! You’ve got this! This is such a cool series, Nate!
I can tell Isaiah has a very bright future in Pokémon and it’s gonna be great watching a new trainer on the field👍🏽
This video was Totally worth the 6 months it took to film. I love this videos so much. This channel was why I started collecting.
this is so heartwarming, brings me back to when i was a kid, seeing his passion for the game and the friends and family that all support this amazing journey makes me feel so good. Well done great documentary, this was the best part of my pokemon day by far :)
Yo Nate, this video was really awesome and I thank you and pokezard for putting so much effort into it!
Thank you for watching
I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS I SPEND MY FREE TIME WITH YOU
easily the most heartwarming thing I've seen this year, never thought I'd tear up watching a realbreakingnate video, but here I am
That ending was a real tear jerker! But I loved every moment. Can't wait to see who's next.
The ending gets me every time
loved watching the video this week especially getting to see a kid enjoy playing pokemon and not just collect and also seeing all the inspiration you have given us over the years I actually lost my job last year as they closed and I got my dream job working for a comic book/board game shop and I got hired thanks to the knowledge of everything pokemon that I had and also the positive attitude I've kept as a little thanks to you as I may sometimes put myself down a lot but when you say there's only one of you in the world don't try and be anyone else just be who you are those words speak the truth to me and its kept me going keep up all the great work Nate and lets keep inspiring the next generation of fans to be just as awesome
this was amazing. it made me very emotional just seeing a kid being able to live his dream and doing what he wants to with the support of his friends, family, and even teachers at school. Heres to isaiah becoming a champion someday while I watch it all happen
Huge congratulations to PokeZard! And huge thank you and congrats to you Nate for using your platform to further this amazing hobby and community. Such an amazing video ☮️ ❤ 🖐️
appreciate the kind words
Happy Pokemon Day to everybody , Isaiah´s story is so inspiring and just show how amazing pokemon is and how it brings people together, pokemon tcg is still kinda small in my little latin american country but have had lots meeting and having fun with pokemon in our local tcg store, here is to more memories with pokemon and friends, always remember that we all start somewhere , I still lose and have trouble building decks but the learning part is so important, enjoyed the documentary a lot , here is to more
This video gave me so many goosebumps!! 😭thank you Nate and Marie.
I cant wait to see the day Isaiah becomes world Champion!!!!!!!
Sending some positive vibes to everyone! Especially pokezard ❤️🙏 had a blast watching his story
I went to my first local Pokemon league tournament Saturday, it was a ton of fun, brought my oldest who watched and hopefully is more interested in building a deck and playing next time!
That’s so awesome you got to experience your first Pokémon league as a family
THIS IS THE SPIRIT OF POKEMON
Wow! Extremely heart warming - love our community! Glad all the hard work that went into this project was able to capture the essence of Pokémon and our welcoming community! ❤
That was fabulous, well done Nate and very well done Pokezard!!!
This is so amazing. I absolutely love this video. Great job on it
Wonderful video! Tears of years past, glad you were able to use some of those photos!
Seeing those pictures just filled my heart with joy!
Coming to this video super late. But just gotta say, being a kid is hard. But it is so much easier when you got family and friends in your corner like he does. You got a REALLY solid support system, dude. Genuinely happy for you and your Pokémon journey!
I also want to meet both Nate and Andrew for sure, but Isaiah making friends with both of them? thats a big win ady for him. Keep up Nate with the love and support!
Just want to say huge shout out to @Pokezard for inspiring me and probably a few others to get into the tcg, it’s an amazing game and have met a load of new people from it, maybe one day I’ll be able to go and compete in a regionals!!!
Touching documentary on Pokezard. He seems like a great kid and papa pokezard sounds like a very supportive father...and i love his shirt.
he's so smart and has so much courage to go to such a big tournement. I thunk he's gonna be a name to keep a close eye on in the future! he's gonna become big ❤️
I love when you do this type of content so much more than product opening! This is what truly makes you one of the best poke tubers we have in the community! 🙏🏻LEGEND!
Dude, thats so awesome! Its a really inspirational story! I was about Pokezard's age when I first begib playing Pokemon TCG, back in the Jungle era, and I wish I had my parants supoorting me like that and Pokezard's will and resolve to participate in a tournmant so early... Thats was really awesome and that kid will go a long way
This has been your best video produced on this channel. Fantastic stuff, a true steward of the Pokemon experience. Keep it up! Can't wait to see the next regional Isaiah video.
Literally the greatest video! What an amazing supportive father, if only the world was filled with people like this
Man you did a wonderful job covering Poke Zards story and sharing with us your childhood at the Danger Room!!! What a great guy you are all around man I strive to be half as great as you Nate thank you for keeping people engaged in healthy hobbies.❤️
Well done @pokezard the world needs more people like you. Big up to Nate for this superb video. I’m going through a difficult time with the recent passing of my mum but your videos shed some light into that darkness so I appreciate you and what you give to people ‘all around the world’!! Just need a bit more love for the best Pokémon, the mighty ‘Oddish’ Peace, love and a high 5
Had an abasolutely devastating day and watching this helped. Thank you, it brought me so many childhood memories. I wish my parents had been that supportive (or at least a bit caring) but anyways this is a prime example of how important is to deeply care for your kids and those around you.
Such a touching story with a lot of meaning for the next generation of Pokemon fans and Pokemon first-gens
I too can relate going to my local card store, competing as a kid, and to now to being an adult, brings back these good memories
It's nice to meet a new face to the tournament front. Thanks for this video, it's nice to know that there are parents like myself making sure to promote what our kids want. Thanks again!
Thank you Rick!
What an absolutely fantastic video Nate! Thank you for creating this and spreading so much joy and positivity! Keep it up man!
This was beautiful to watch, perfect day to drop it too. Can’t wait to see what else you’ve got in store 💖
Holy crap nate, that was absolutely amazing to watch. You brought a tear to this 31 year Olds eyes, I remember opening packs and trading with friends when pokemon first started. I only wish I kept all my cards to pass on to my nephew who is really into it now. I had every card that is worth tons now in my binders as a kid, even doubles and triples. Great video man
Great video Nate. This has to be one of your best videos, EVER!
Wow, thanks!
Congratulations for going to and participating in regionals ! You are a very bright kid and will go far ! You have the support of your family and great friends ! Way to go kiddo ! :)
This was a great video. I love your group of friends that you have. Makes me want to make a trip from California to Anderson to meet everyone.
MAN!! That really caught me in the feels. You’re a great guy @realbreakingnate!
Brilliantly & beautifully done! I'm a Pokezard fan who is looking forward to watching future short films of his journey to the top of the Pokemon world! Let's go!
